The District Commissioners vester- day gave their indorsement to a pro- posal to permanently establish the District Militia in the Pension Office Building. Writing to Senator Reed Smoot of Utah, chairman of the Public Build- ings Commission, the Commissioners declared that the Pension Office Butld- ing “would serve the purpose of an armory for that organization admir- ably for the reason that the large open area in the interior of the build- ing could be utilized for drill pur- poses.” They also pointed out that if this frock WelgrAfeRt could be tblle there would | L.

PHILIPPINE RELICS PROVE OLD CULTURE Explorations Near Manila Show Race Lived There 20,000 Years Ago. BY WALTER ROBB. By Radlo to The Star and Chicago Daily News. (Copyright, 1026.) MANILA, P. 1., December 16— Dr. H. Otley Beyer of the University of the Philippines has just discovered relics near Manila which he claims will prove the txistence of stone-age culture on the island of Luzon 18,000 years before Christ. This culture, he claims, has been Malayan for at least several thousand vears. The earliest foreign contacts were Indlan and Arablan. The Chl- nese contacts came much later from the Sung to the Ming dynasty. Speci- mens of Arabic and Indian centacts include Indian glass beads, bracelets and dangles and Arablan pottery. Probable early Malayan cultureg are indicated by many polished and un- polished stone implements. There are axes with a shoulder for fastening the handle that are mnot found in Asian stone relics found among other Malayan relics. The collection includes several hun- “ask for Horlick's The ORIGINAL \ Malted Milk For Infants, Invalids, the Aged, Nursing Mothers, Chlldl-. stc. For all members of the family, lilinl or well.
